Making Science FAIR Inter- Science Findable Accessible Reusable operable Beilstein Open Science Symposium 2018 8 – 10 October, 2018 Hotel Jagdschloss Niederwald Rüdesheim, Germany 8 – 10 October, 2018 Hotel Jagdschloss Niederwald Rüdesheim, Germany The Beilstein-Institut and Open Science The non-profit Beilstein-Institut is one of the most respected organizations in the communication and dissemination of high-quality information in chemistry. Since 1951, when the foundation was established by the Max Planck Society, we have been fulfilling our mission to support the scientific community by providing high-quality information that is essential for research. Our role has evolved over the years: from the production of the Beilstein Handbook and Database, to being one of the first open access journal publishers in chemistry, to host of interdisciplinary symposia and supporter of open data initiatives. We believe that free access to scientific research results, giving everyone in the world an equal chance to read and reuse experimental findings and data, is the best way to advance science. Open Science is a new approach to scientific research. It is based on cooperation and uses new ways to disseminate information and broaden knowledge through digital technologies and new collaborative tools. It aims to make the primary outputs of publicly funded research results – publications (open access) and the research data (open data) – publicly accessible in digital format with no or minimal restriction. The Beilstein-Institut supports open science and makes the results of its projects freely available to the scientific community as open access publications. This is an essential contribution to the foundation’s mission to advance the chemical and related sciences. All journal articles, conference proceedings and videos are open access to allow the worldwide, unhindered sharing and exchange of ideas. This allows scientists, students, educators and the public the opportunity to inform themselves of the latest developments in research and to build on these ideas to further advance scientific knowledge. Our two platinum open access journals, the Beilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry and the Beilstein Journal of Nanotechnology, which we fully fund, have no fees for authors or readers. Both journals are produced and managed by the Beilstein Editorial Office team, who work together with a global scientific network of experts that are responsible for the peer review. In 2015, the Beilstein Journals were awarded the DOAJ Seal which recognizes the exceptionally high level of publishing standards and best practices adhering to these journals. An essential prerequisite for open science data is reporting guidelines and technical standards that provide the framework for the exchange of data from one laboratory to another without technical and textual barriers. The Beilstein-Institut runs two data standards projects: STRENDA which is concerned with the reporting of enzymology data and MIRAGE with the reporting of glycomics experimental results. Both of which are now widely accepted and acknowledged by the scientific community. The direct interaction and the exchange of thoughts and ideas between scientists are supported by a program of regularly hosted symposia. These international meetings are organized by the Beilstein-Institut and cover a variety of topics ranging from organic chemistry and biochemistry to nanotechnology and open science as well as interdisciplinary meetings on contemporary topics. The Beilstein-Institut has been hosting symposia since 1988. Each meeting is always an interesting event with an open result: the Beilstein-Institut provides the framework and the lively and intense exchange of thoughts and ideas of the participants turn it into a memorable and lasting experience. The number of participants is usually limited to around 50 and the program is designed specifically to allow sufficient time for discussions. In some ways the talks can be seen as providing a catalyst for these discussions which often go on into the night and have led to subsequent cooperation projects. The resulting exchange between researchers is the underlying goal of the meeting and gives the Beilstein Symposium their unique character. Regularly updated information about our symposia is available at www.beilstein-symposia.org.

It will impact the way research is carried out and reported, in particular focussing on improving the way research data is stored and shared. Open Science aims to make research and development more effective by improving the communication of scientific knowledge through free access to research results, by encouraging researchers to share their data, and ensuring that data are complete, comprehensive and transparent. The lack of a framework for structured and standardized data reporting and the largely outdated infrastructure for reporting and publishing scientific research results means that the ability to validate, verify and reuse data is insufficient to allow data-driven research and development. A good way forward is to adopt the FAIR principles that aim to make aim to make data Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable. However, achieving these goals requires not only investment in hardware and personnel (data scientists) but also cultural changes for researchers to be more open to sharing results – perhaps prior to publishing as a journal article. This symposium addresses the interfaces between the laboratory and the new infrastructures currently being set up. In chemistry, biochemistry and neighbouring areas, funding agencies and national and supranational bodies are mandating the sharing and depositing of data. The digitization of chemistry is picking up speed as new technologies are diffusing into the lab allowing devices to be interconnected, data automatically recorded, and experiments to be automated. The impact of open science on science research will be critically reviewed and the development of highly interconnected, collaborative research in data driven laboratories of the future will be discussed.
